Renewable PU will be an early outcome of UPM-Dongsung partnership
Industrial group UPM has announced a partnership with Korean group Dongsung Chemical. The companies have said they will work together to accelerate the introduction of renewable, sustainable forest-sourced materials to reduce fossil resource consumption.
UPM had already announced an investment of €750 million in what it is calling the world’s first industrial-scale biorefinery for converting sustainably sourced, wood-based biomass into “next-generation biochemicals”.
